Secret of Marble

[roliepolie]

Hidden inside these chunks of earth
await things only visible to the brave.
Seize the cold extentions of hands
and release to the world your vision.

Three chords bend in a whirlwind, sounds that David knew--
and lost gods dance with drink.
I am wrapped in the wings of The Proccess
while slivers of stone are freed and fall
as snowflakes in summer.

’Tis a brave one indeed--who stands open
beneath the great Black Heron who covers all light above
his feathers unfurled, teasing fish into night--
and releases the hidden captive unto the world.

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

I love that first verse, it's got a really epic feel to it and great visualisation through word usage.

Nice work

thats not a quote by myself... I forget who said it.. lemme go and find out again, they should doubtless get s credit for writing it

as for the poem, this is my work. glad it touched someone.

it reminds me of how we as writers take a pen and black out whole pages and all that is left is the poetry.
